Child holding a fan is a 1876 watercolor by Marchioness of Waterford Louisa Anne, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a young girl in a red dress, holding a green fan and a small bouquet. Her hair is light, and she’s wearing a dark shawl over her shoulders. The background is simple and dark, focusing all attention on her. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving the painting a soft, sketchy feel. The colors are bright but not polished, which makes it look like a quick, lively moment. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
